Hello Kenny, both of those drugs are predominantly for depressions BUT they are know to help with pain and sleep. Amitrip reduced because the other are advised to increase gradually, amitrip of taken after evening meal (provided you are not going to drive) will help you sleep, speak to your pharmacist for guidance on taking them both at the right time. Do you have any conventional pain relievers like codeine, co cocadmol??
